Here is the actual study: http://www.brennancenter.org/sites/default/files/legacy/d/download_file_39242.pdf

LOL you will notice that the only 3 forms of ID they asked if people had was a VALID drivers license, a military ID, or a United States Passport.

So all those civilian people with a suspended license and no passport had to answer no to both questions.

I have a passport, a DL, a military ID and 2 other forms of government issued photo ID in my wallet. I can produce a birth certificate,a SS card, and all the paperwork to prove my person.

What the mother jones bar graph is trying to get you to believe is that a high percentage of minorities cannot prove who they are at all. Unable to get Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, cash a paycheck, get a checking account, rent an apartment, buy anything on credit, purchase alcohol or tobacco products, legally drive a vehicle, register a vehicle, buy a new firearm at the store or even at a gun show. Also is committing a felony because they didn't sign up for selective service, which means all the males are felons and felons can't vote.

Blacks?
How about out of state college students that live in our state and have a right to vote?
They have to go thru the hassle of getting their ID changed.
Think it's easy? The DMV has reduced hours and is open during the normal time people are either at work or school.
That's not even mentioning the cost or the hassle.
The Idea is not to make it impossible, just make it hard enough that people would rather just not vote than go thru the trouble.

What about senior citizens?
And what about Blacks?.
What about people that dont have a car?

And that is the whole idea
Republicans know the more people who vote. The more people vote against them. They have done the demographics and the math and are doing everything they can to suppress the vote for those most likely not to vote for them

Out of state students had to show some form of ID to get enrolled.

Out of state students can vote absentee from their home state.

Here is what our own state senator Dale Schultz (R) says.

“It’s just, I think, sad when a political party — my political party — has so lost faith in its ideas that it’s pouring all of its energy into election mechanics. And again, I’m a guy who understands and appreciates what we should be doing in order to make sure every vote counts, every vote is legitimate. But that fact is, it ought to be abundantly clear to everybody in this state that there is no massive voter fraud. The only thing that we do have in this state is we have long lines of people who want to vote. And it seems to me that we should be doing everything we can to make it easier, to help these people get their votes counted. And that we should be pitching as political parties our ideas for improving things in the future, rather than mucking around in the mechanics and making it more confrontational at the voting sites and trying to suppress the vote.”

There are no reduced hours, the ID is free and now you insinuate that voting is just a hassle.

And if they are at work or school they already have IDs.

This is stupid. Got a racist saying blacks can't get ID and a cheezy saying college students don't have ID and can't vote from their home state.

Love the accuracy stats too. My county wrote 38 speeding tickets last month out of millions of drivers, so only 38 people were speeding during the entire month.

Where do they come up with this?

I voted for a president while sitting aboard a ship in the middle of the south China sea, I also voted for my home states senator and reps.
I didn't show anyone my ID.

I went to school out of state and just showed up and told them who I was and they believed me. The SAT and ACT tests I had to take just to attend college didn't even ask, I just said I'm here. In fact, I took those tests for all of my friends too, because ID isn't required for that. That's why so many college students are without ID. ID? we don't need no stinkin ID! yeah right.... you can tell who never went to college.

This left wing sham about minorities and the poor having a hard time getting an id is just as much a fabrication as the "war on women"

Without their deceptive tactics, democrats would win few elections.

My Grandma had no problem making it downtown to get an ID.

So getting a SS card is no problem, but getting an ID is next to impossible?

Your argument is weak sauce.

Thats why numerous Republicans have come out and said Voter ID is about suppressing Democrat votes
